Trooper James McDonald was not injured, and the man at the home, Leonard Maker, was wounded. Maker had a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, McCausland said.

The shooting took place at a house at 245 New England Road between 3 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

Col. Robert Williams of the state police said that at the time of the shooting, the trooper was at the home to serve a protection from abuse order as well as to arrest Maker on warrants for failure to appear.

Maker went to Waldo County General Hospital in Belfast after the shooting and was later transferred to Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor.

As is the case with all officer involved shootings, the Maine Attorney General's Office is investigating.
